Ft Walton Beach Snowbird Club
FORT WALTON BEACH SNOWBIRD CLUB 2010
Membership Registration - Anyone who missed the regular registration period early January may still sign up at the Elks Club from 11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays until the end of February or prior to regular monthly membership meetings.
The brisk activity during the initial three days indicated that, once again, we’ll be increasing membership numbers over the previous season
Going out? for a snack, a nice dinner, have a bun and beer while watching a game? How about gifts or just stuff you need, just a car wash. A day of golf or fishing?
Members are urged to check the “Good Guys List” (available at meetings) and give first consideration to the local businesses who contribute prizes for our meetings. It’s only good business to support those who support us.
Meetings - Monthly general membership meetings will, again, be held at 10 a.m. Tuesday mornings at the Elk’s Club, January 12, February 2 and March 2.
Activities - Valentines Dinner / Dance – Apparently the word is out that this event features good food and good value for the discounted price allowed Club members. Limited tickets are going fast so members interested who don’t have reservations are advised to get them ASAP before they’re gone.
Movie Admission Deal – A new feature proving popular this year is the sale by the club of movie admission, for a considerable discount, to a nearby first-run theater complex . There’s no limit to this offer; tickets are available at any registration period mentioned above.
